Four thousand people were in attendance last night at the meeting called by the Revisionists, the right-wing Zionists, to protest against the Jewish immigration restrictions imposed by the Palestine government. Vladimir Jabotinsky, Revisionist leader, presided at the meeting which appealed to the British people “who are not aware of the unjust and unjustified government policy in Palestine.”
Col. John Henry Paterson, commander of the Jewish Legion of the British Army during the World War, sent a message to the meeting urging the Jews to unite in a demand for justice in Palestine.
